Back when San Francisco's AM talk radio station KGO was progressive, I remember one of the show hosts talking at length with disgust about the Bohemian Grove event as it was happening, about the vulgarity of the rich and powerful gathering for networking in the backdrop of pagan rituals.

A lot of assholes like John Bolton and Dick Cheney were up there, an hour or two up the coast and up the Russian River. This was before Obama was elected, maybe 2007-ish?
